    amazing experience

    shivani s.couple

    Amazing property, helpful staff and all amenities given in a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend to stay here. I asked for extra towels for my friends living in the dorm and they were very helpful with that as well. Amazing amazing amazing, no complaints.... only thing is to have breakfast at the property and try other eateries outside.

    I visited this in August vacations and it was unforgettable experience for me. The hostel staff was so courteous and helpful in every way possible. The rooms are spacious, the bathrooms were neat and clean. Coming to the food quality, it was superb and delicious. Their chefs are fantabulous. The manager allowed us late check out as well. I will be staying here again in next year

    Average, staff behavior was not welcoming.

    gayatri b.solo

    Stay was okay but the staff were not welcoming. Their behavior was little rude, and way of taking was full of attitude at reception as well as cafeteria. Only one staff i found polite but i don't know his name. Even the management and amenities was average, but the good thing is its location is good, very close to mall road and dalai lama temple and also, it has the separate female doms.
